Compiling iPXE binaries trusting your SSL certificate Installation Failed

[yuma]

Installation fails. Many lines of OK, then “Compiling iPXE binaries trusting your SSL certificate…Failed!”

Last line is “cp: cannot stat ‘/tftpboot/*’: No such file or directory”

I though it failed because I elected to not disable my firewall, so I disabled it and tried again.

Same, “Compiling iPXE binaries trusting your SSL certificate…Failed!”

(This time the different message at the bottom displayed the database backup.)

The log file has no other details, it only echos the above error.

How can I get past this, and continue installation?

@yuma This is a bit miss-leading because the compile messages go to a different log file not directly displayed be the installer when it hits an error.

Please take a look at the log file you find in the directory you ran the FOG installer from ........../fogproject/bin/error_logs/fog_ipxe-build_1.5.9.log - upload that whole log file to a file hoster and post a link here.

Sorry for diging up this post.
Just for us the solution was a missing package : gcc-aarch64-linux-gnu

@marcolefo Sounds like the package ‘build-essential’ should be an install target of the FOG install script? It doesn’t seem to be.

However I think my distro installs of Debian 12 and Mint 22.1 both installed that package by default.
